Palm Beach County leaders issued evacuation orders Tuesday for residents living in Zone A — a zone made up of low-lying inland areas not necessarily on the coast — as the state braces for the landfall of Hurricane Milton on Wednesday. Residents can check their evacuation zones on the county's emergency preparedness website.

As Hurricane Milton continues to churn toward an expected landfall on Florida's Gulf Coast late Wednesday, the Florida Department of Transportation will begin locking down Palm Beach County's drawbridges beginning at noon Tuesday.
